RTL8822CU, RTL8822BU, and RTL8821CU don't need BIT_EN_PRE_CALC.
In fact, RTL8822BU in USB 3 mode doesn't pass all the frames to the
driver, resulting in much lower download speed than normal:

Don't set BIT_EN_PRE_CALC. Then the speed is much better:

The code in the official drivers is a little broken. It sets
BIT_EN_PRE_CALC and then immediately unsets it. I didn't notice that
before.

Maybe this should go to kernel 6.12, if it's not too late. Commit 002a5db9a52a
("wifi: rtw88: Enable USB RX aggregation for 8822c/8822b/8821c") first appears
in 6.12.

Have you also tested in USB 2 mode? Just want to know this patch works on
both modes.

Good job. That improves ten times of RX throughput!

Kalle, could you help to take this patch via wireless tree? If yes, I will
assign this to you in patchwork.

Yes, USB 2 mode was working before and it still works after this patch.

Yes, let's take this to wireless. And you don't need to ask me, just
mention that this should go to wireless tree and assign the patch to me :)

Thanks, I'll try to catch up with patches over the weekend.
